註釋My thesis explores the economic benefits and costs of shared e-bikes on university campuses. Shared e-bikes provide access to consumers who do not own their own e-bikes. They are electric bikes that can be shared by multiple riders through an e-bike share program. There has been dramatic growth in the number of e-bike users in Europe, America, and China (Schleinitz et al., 2017). Many universities in the United States (U.S.) have adopted a shared e-bike or e-scooter system on campus. Shared e-bikes on university campuses help with decreasing traffic congestion and parking needs, lowering greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and potential cost savings for riders compared to traditional transportation options such as driving and ride-hailing. It provides improved accessibility and convenience for students, faculty, staff, and visitors. However, there are fixed and marginal costs associated with adopting and sustaining a shared e-bike program. This article is a case study on The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State)'s current Spin e-bike share program on Penn State University Park campus. Riders and Penn State can benefit from enhanced accessibility to sustainable transportation and cost savings.
